About this property
This chocolate-box cottage sits on Scotland’s dramatic south-east coastline, just 6 miles from the thriving town of Dunbar. Sleeping up to six guests across two bedrooms, this is the perfect base for small families and groups of friends planning days of outdoor adventure together. You’ll find two popular local attractions within just a mile of your doorstep: the golden Thorntonloch Beach and the fascinating ruins of Innerwick Castle, offering a true introduction to this sandy and historic corner of Scotland. In Dunbar, amble around the harbour, take your pick from a choice of traditional restaurants and pubs, and learn about the local history with visits to the town’s museum and the ruins of Dunbar Castle. From Dunbar, you can join the coast path and head towards Belhaven Bay, Tyninghame Beach, and Seacliff Beach (all within 14.5 miles) – keep your eyes peeled along the way for seabirds, seals, and wildflowers.
Step inside this charming cottage and you'll find space in the hall to kick off your muddy walking boots and hang coats. Be greeted by stylish interiors that combine pops of colour and calming hues with modern comforts and original features. Relaxation is made easy thanks to a choice of two lounges on the ground floor. The first features soft seating arranged around a Smart TV and a roaring wood burner, while the other doubles as your dining space and offers an open fire, a selection of board games and books, plus a table with space for six. When stomachs rumble, walk through to the stylish kitchen and find a well-appointed space with everything needed to cook up Scottish feasts, which can be enjoyed at the dining table indoors or alfresco at the picnic bench. Completing the ground floor is the first of two bathrooms with a shower over the bath. At the end of each day away, head upstairs and retire to two restful double bedrooms, both of which offer an extra single bed for additional guests. Serving the bedrooms and completing the home is the second bathroom.
Spill outside as often as possible to make full use of the peaceful garden. Enclosed by a stone wall and catching the sun, this lovely spot features ample lawn space for garden games, plus a charcoal BBQ and picnic bench for al fresco dining. You’ll also benefit from private off-road parking for three cars.
